Tallest lead actor ever? I dont think so. Even if you dont count those horrible wrestlers and other freaks there has still been taller men playing lead roles.
Sterling Hayden was at least 6-5 and a lead actor. James Arness was around 6-7 and played a lead role a couple of times. Rock Hudson was at least 6-5 and was a leading man. Clint Walker was a leading man in some films. And there are a lot more...
So Lee was never the tallest leading man.

Adam , I agree that Lee appears more like 4 inches taller than Moore ( at least in the famous back to back scene) in "The Man With The Golden Gun". Although , I don't see Moore being any taller than 6'1" barefoot and possibly only 6'0.5".

Was he really only 2-3 inches taller than Moore? I remember that the difference was like 4 inches?
In THE DEVIL RIDES OUT Lee was around three inches taller than Charles Gray who was probably 6-2.

when I saw Christopher lee in man with the golden gun he was from the range of 2 - 3 inches taller than roger who I take as 6 ft 1 1/2 so that would make christopher 6 ft 4 1/2 at tallest.Can someone tell me if roger was 6 ft 1 or 1 1/2 in man with the golden gun, I mean he was 45 then so does thaT MEAN HE WAS 6 FT 1 1/2 OR EVEN AT 6 FT 2.

I think Christopher lee was at 6 ft 4 1/2 at tallest or, if you have the eveidence that he was 6 ft 5 at younger age then I guess he was.

The Wicker Man was on TV last night, and strangely Lee looked all of 6ft3 tops in that film, and that was 1972 I believe! He didn't give off the impression of a 6ft5 man like he's done in other films!

In Dr. Terror`s House Of Horrors (good film) Lee looks clearly taller than Donald Sutherland. The difference could really be as much as solid 2 inches -and Sutherland was 6-4! You cant check it on youtube.

I hate it when people are downgrading their heights! 6'5" or maybe 6'5 1/2" was Lee's height when he was younger.

If he is 6'4" then he wouldn't have had as much trouble as he claims he had with his height, because he would only be an inch bigger than Gregory Peck who was pretty much at the top of Hollywood, so 6'5" would be more likely because he's then a whole two inches bigger than a leading Hollywood actor.

Lee has always been a slender man with a perfect posture. This guy seems to care about his height though he only claimes 6-4. He sure is 6-5, no doubts. Half an inch more peak? Maybe.... How they got that? I guess 6-5

A german website announced Lee's height as 197cm (6'5 1/2"). If this is true is the big question but Lee looked easily four inches taller than Hayden Christensen in Star Wars Episode III.

I think it is possible that Christopher Lee was infact 6 ft 5 to 6 ft 6 ins with shoes in his younger days. He looked large in a lot of films. My aunt used to work for a television company in the 1970s and saw this very large man with big hands, which were of Lee. She never commented about his height. However, when I read a profile of the Saint and James Bond actor, Roger Moore in a Film Preview book from the late 1950s or early 1960s, it said his height was 6 ft 2 ins, which of course would make Christopher at least 3 inches or more taller in the Bond movie - The Man with the Golden Gun.

He got his big break playing a monster when Bernard Bresslaw's agent asked for too much money and Hammer didn't want to pay. They were two of the tallest quality actors working in Britain in the 50, 60, and 70s so they got all those kind of parts. Rob, you should also list Bresslaw, he was a star.

He's in pretty astounding shape for an old man. Much like Clint Eastwood, but Lee's voice has nearly the same gravity as it did in his youth.

Let's give him a current 6'3", in an interview dating back 2001 (El mundo, Spanish newspaper) he's described as "only" a plain 190cm.
He might have declined a bit more in height but probably is quite near to it.

Lee is way taller then 6'1.5 and rarely ever looks shorter then 6'3. So 6'1.5 is really unlikely. If that was the case Roger Moore would be 5'8.

Ralph, where do you 6ft1.5 from? It's apparent Lee has shrunk a bit, but did you see the 2005 premiere pics for Revenge of the Sith. If Lee is only 6ft1.5, than that would put Sam Jackson at 5ft11.5 and Christensen at around 5ft10. I can't see Lee anything less than 6ft2.5 or 6ft3, with Jackson at 6ft1 maybe a hair more, and Christensen at 5ft11.5. Rob saw him recently, and pegged him at about 6ft2 to 6ft3, I'm guessing that's a barefoot estimate since he didn't say, so that would put Lee at between 6ft3 and 6ft4 with shoes.

i'm 6'4" (1.93cm) exactly and i saw Christopher Lee on 2 occasions in Italy walking in the streets of Venice he was purchasing a little gift (arlecchino doll) and i said hi to him, i noticed he was about 1 - 1.5cm taller than me so i guess he is 1.93cm, and i agree his posture is great. really kind man and he even joked with a few italian words he knew. :-D excellent actor too.
so from personal experience i'd say he his real height is 1.94cm and with shoes about 1.95cm, i say so because i am 1.94cm with shoes and since he was 1cm taller and the street was EVEN, then he is 1.95cm with shoes and 1.94cm without.
he can't be 1.93cm because that would make me 1.92cm (unless i shrink that day) lol which is highly unlikely.

Jordan, yeah Lee had trouble getting acting parts when young because he was tall. This was at a time when 6ft was tall let alone 6'5''. Also he had dark exotic looks at a time when the preference in leading men was for those with typical Anglo-Saxon features. It's seems to have worked out for him in the end though. His distinctiveness seems to have aided his longevitivity.

You are correct. Personally I dont think Lee wants to be refered to as a giant so he says he is 6'4. Remenber, in lee's bio it states he had a hard time getting jobs b/c of his height. I think lee rounds himeself down to 6'4, but in reality he is taller.

Chris lee is i think officially recognised as the tallest actor in a lead role at 6'5", i dunno would that honour pass to vince vaughn now that hes making it big in movies, vince is like 6'5". I know Lees 6'4" now due to his age and posture, but hes always been a presence on the big screen, being 6'4" myself i admire the credit hes given tall people on screen. By the way heres one for the movie/height buffs..has anyone seen The Legend of Fu Manchu starring Lee? You should check out Lees sidekick in it, the chinese guy looks to be 6'8-9"!! Hes huge, Lee himself remarking afterwards that the lad was "head and shoulders over me"

well Chris Lee is probably 6-4 in shoes, or 6-2+ to 6-3ish without shoes. Now 6-4 is a very tall man, you don't see many 6-4 people walking around period. Jordan is about 6-6 with shoes, so about 2 inches taller than Lee. Roger Moore is about 6feet+ with shoes, or 5-10+ to 5-11 without. Samuel L.'s wax statue at Madam Toussant is about 5-11, but he might be 6 feet or a bit over with shoes on in real life. So Lee's got 4 inches on both of them with shoes on, that's a big difference especially on film.

This is getting comical, there's no way Sam Jackson is 5ft11! I know a lot of these stars are shorter in real life, but that's a little absurd. Unless it can be proven, I'll say for now Lee is 6ft3 1/2 barefoot, and Jackson is 6ft1 to 6ft1.5 barefoot, with Christensen pushing 6ft. Jackson has always been tall in all his films for too many years, 5ft11 is hilarious.

There looked like about 4 inches between Moore and Lee in that back to back shot in The Man with the Golden Gun. I would say Moore was about 6'0 1/2'' and Lee about 6'4 1/2''. I agree with you Michael Jordan is only 6'4 1/2'' minus shoes, though. He might seem a little taller than Lee because he has a small head and thus more body length.

Roger Moore is not 6-1, he's a normal sized man who's around 6 feet with shoes. Lee was taller than Moore in Man with Golden Gun but no way is there 5 inches separating them, at most 3 or 4 inches, which would make Lee about 6-4 with shoes, or 6-2ish without, which by the way, is very tall.
Samuel L. Jackson is about 5-11, saw a life-sized statue of him at Madam Toussaint's at time square, not a tall man.
Again, Michael Jordan is 6-4.5 barefooted, Chris Lee is NOT taller than or same height as Jordan. No way.

Who usually gets 2" of height from their shoes? I have running shoes and boots and both of them give me 3/4" of an inch and the boots gives me 1 and 1/4" inch of height. And secondly let's not go too crazy no way is Samuel L. Jackson only 5'11" 6'0". He looks big near Samuel L Jackson.

I suppose the shortest I could go with for Lee would be 6ft3+ barefoot these days. He's in his 80's now so I'm sure he shrunk a bit, but he was just to tall back in the day to be anything less than 6ft4.5 to 6ft5 barefoot. Look at The Wicker Man, The Man with the Golden Gun, Dracula, even more recent movies like Lord of the Rings and Sleepy Hollow, the guy has consistently loomed over everyone else in the casts. When he stood back to back with the 6ft1 Roger Moore, in TMWTGG he was way taller, easily 5 inches.

Lee is a VERY tall man met him at the MOMA in NYC (1986-7?) and he possesses a HUGE physical presence much more than any other actor I have seen.

I would guess about 6'4 1/2'' in his prime and a flat 6'4'' today. I don't think he's lost much height to speak of suprisingly.

so you are saying Lee is as tall as Michael Jordan? Are you kidding me??? If Lee is 6-6 with shoes on, he would look like a giant, he looks tall, but not like a giant, on the big screen. 6-4 with shoes.

There's no way Lee is only 6ft2+ in his barefeet, and 6ft4 with shoes. Scroll down this page and look at the pic under Editor Rob's name, the one with Sam Jackson, George Lucas, and Hayden Christensen. If Lee is only 6ft2+ barefoot, with shoes he'd be maybe just pushing 6ft4. If that's the case what is Sam Jackson 6ft barefoot, and 6ft1.5 with shoes because there's clearly a big difference in height between those two. Christensen would be 5ft10 with shoes on in that pic if that's the case. There's at least 5 to 6 inches between Christensen and Lee, and 3+ between Sam Jackson and Lee.

Well Lee says he's 6-4, and I think that's a with shoes measurement, so about 6-2+ without shoes. 6-4 barefooted would make him about 6-6 with shoes, an astounding height for movies. Michael Jordan is 6-4+ without shoes and look how big he looks on TV, even compared to Sat. Nite Live's Kevin Neelan, who is over 6 feet himself. No way is Lee as tall as Michael Jordan. Come on now!

So if he is shorter, which is possible considering his age, what does that make Sam Jackson, Mckellan,and Christensen? If he's only 6ft3 now a days, than the rest of those actors are a lot shorter, than their projected heights. That picture with him and Loken is at kind of an odd angle. Almost looking up at the two of them, and she looks like she's wearing big heeled boots. Still. could he have shrunk that much in 3 1/2 to 4 years?

Based on the Loken and McKellen pictures, I think the guy's just starting to shrink. He has stood impressively tall for a long time, but he is turning 84 this year after all. He looks like he loomed rather taller just a couple years in those pictures with Samuel L. Jackson, Hayden Christensen and George Lucas.

Lee is absolutely not 6-5. 6-3 max judging from the McKellen and Roger Moore photo. Roger is more like 5-11. He could be 6-4, no way is he 6-5.

Most people do start to significantly shrink as they move past 75 or 80 but Lee defies this rule. He is 6'4 minimum even now as Rob and Ed say.

Rob, I'm not the most computer savvy person, and I saved a few pics from the Hayden Christensen site, but I'm not quite sure how to post them. I'm sure you have other sites to look into, but if you can, go to( desiringhayden.net)and look under gallery, followed by public appearances, and then choose 2002, there is under Attack of the Clones London Premiere, May 14th, 2002, Several really good shots of Christopher Lee, Samuel L. Jackson, and Hayden Christensen standing together. There are some good full shots of them, with them lined up in a row, standing right next to each other, all with what appears to be normal footwear. Lee towers over all of them, including Jackson who is considerably taller than Christensen. I thought you might find these interesting to post since I'm slightly retarted in that department!

Rob, he has to be standing on his toes with Lee, if he indeed is 5ft10 that would make Lee 6ft2ish. I highly doubt that, in that case do check out the Christensen site if you can, because Lee still towers over all of them, including Sam Jackson, who now would be lowered to 6ft if Lee is 6ft2.5 now! I can't buy it.

Poor Chris has shrunk! And a lot! But he's now about 84 so I can understand why.
And that photo of McKellen and Stewart proves that Stewart is no more than 5'8"! Those shoes on McKellon look like some bizarre type of sandals. And he looks to have a bandage on one foot. And we can't tell if Stewart is wearing lifts, but in that shot seeing he's about two inches shorter, I doubt it. He wasn't wearing lifts when I spoke to him.

Well, if that's the case then some changes are in order. I've been willing to take a new perspective on all heights that I've had preconceived notions about. If Mckellan is indeed 5ft10, than my suspicion of Bloom being shorter would make sense. I'm still puzzled by Mortensen and Bean though. In Patriot Games there didn't seem to be much of a difference with him and Harrison Ford. Unless Ford is only 5ft11ish. In all the scenes in the Lord of the Rings movies Mckellan seems the tallest of the Fellowship. In all premiere photos and candid behind the scenes footage the same applies. Maybe all these guys are just a lot shorter than they seem on film.

That's interesting Frank2 that you say Mckellan is only 5ft10 because that would make Viggo Mortensen, Orlando Bloom, and Sean Bean all 5ft10 or less. The 4 of them in the Lord of the Rings films are all almost identical in height with Rob's listings at 5ft10.5 for Bloom, 5ft10.5for Bean, 5ft11 for Mortensen,and5ft11.5 for Mckellan. If Mckellan is 5ft10 and not 5ft11.5 then is Mortensen 5ft9.5, and Bloom and Bean only 5ft9 each? You said you saw him, does that mean you met him up close or viewed him from a distance? Just curious.

I met Lee at Universal back in the very early 1980's and he was at least 6'4" and could have been 6'5". But not 6'6". No way. Ian McKellan is about 5'10". At least that's how tall he looked to me when I saw him. What surprised me was how much taller Peter Cushing was in person. In all those Hammer films he did with Lee he looked short. Then after I realized that Lee was at least 6'4" I came to think that Cushing was 5'10". Then I met him and he was my height! So Peter could have been 6' when he was younger and Lee 6'5".

6ft4 sounds totally accurate for Christopher Lee. In The Lord of the Rings films he stands toe to toe with Lawrence Maokore(the Uruk Hai Chief Lurtz) who is 6ft4, and Lee is still a bit taller. He looks a good 5 inches taller than the 5ft11 Ian Mckellan(Gandalf) when they are walking together in the Fellowship Of the Ring. As far as the Star Wars films go, he definitely shows his height when sharing the screen with the 6ft Hayden Christensen and 5ft9.5 Ewan Mcgregor. How about his cameo in Willy Wonka, in his scenes with the 5ft10 Johnny Depp he looks massive. I think he was 6ft5 maybe more in his younger days, the man is in his 80's and has put on a few pounds in his later years. Still, for those interested I mentioned this on the Hayden Christensen height page, that if you check Hayden's fansite, it's ridiculously called DesiringHayden.net and look up pics in the gallery area of the Star Wars film premieres, in particular Revenge of the Sith, you'll see how much taller Christopher Lee is than any other cast member save Peter Mayhew(Chewbacca). The two of them dwarf everyone else!

I would also put him at 6'4", but you could also call him 6'5". My reason for this is that taller people, even men, will round down when it actually hurts them to be taller.
I know a guy who is 6'6.75", most people think he is 6'8"-6'10", and he is infact closer to 6'7" than 6'6", but since he is just a hair under 6'7" he rounds DOWN and says 6'6" to make his weight, 350 pounds at his heaviest, sound more impressive. He is a bodybuilder and that is a sport (if you want to call it that) where tall height, especially rarely tall height, actually hurts you. Some of the shorter ones will round up, but the ones who want their weight to sound more impressive will round down.
Now what does this have to do with Christopher Lee who is skinny as a broom stick? Well it is for a different reason, but in his proffesion extreem height can be a limiting factor, when trying to get roles as a "leading man", or other main roles that do NOT call for extreem height, or playing a villian in a role where it would NOT be good to make the opposite leading man seem short.
So he Probably rounds down from 6'4.5" or even 6'4.75", and says 6'4", when he is infact closer to 6'5".
Ok that is my $ 0.02 on why some taller guys might round down.

I happened to watch an old Chris Lee movie the other night called The Wicker Man. Chris absolutely dwarfed everyone in that film. I don't think there was a single actor or extra that even came close. 6'5" is easily believable.

Everyone else seems to say 6'5" for Lee as a younger man, but in his autobiography he says 6'4" at least a few times. Maybe 6'4" is his height as a more "mature" man...definitely a very tall man with good posture for someone in their 80s.
